How will you celebrate Administrative Professional’s Day?

This is the day to show and share your appreciation for the people within your organization that work hard to ensure all cylinders are firing but are often overlooked when it comes to credit and respect. The administrators may not be on the front line or in the trenches dealing with customers or contractors, but they are ever-present, making sure your business stays a well-oiled machine. Assuming your employees know you appreciate their efforts and achievements within your organization is not a good idea. Even the most loyal administrative professional will experience waning dedication if they go too long without hearing so much as a thank-you. It is just good practice to express your gratitude for the work every member of your team does on a regular basis to promote worker satisfaction and retention. Waiting until the end of the year or review time doesn’t cut it. 

If you want to keep your valued employees happy and not looking to apply their talents and experience elsewhere, you should consider a small gift or token of your appreciation as an investment in the future of your organization. A handwritten thank-you note is a great way to show them you are aware of their hard work,e.g., 

Thank you for all you do to keep us organized and running so smoothly. We would not be as efficient without you. Your efforts and hard work do not go unnoticed. You are a top-notch assistant, and you are crucial to our success. Happy Administrative Professional’s Day. 

A lovely gift goes even further and demonstrates to all your employees that you are paying attention and making an effort to make them feel recognized and appreciated. If you need ideas or help with making this happen, give us a call. 

Over the last two years, our world has been turned upside down. Showing your gratitude today is more important than ever before. We don’t know what normal will look like going forward. However, we know there are key people we never want to be without.
